You Won’t Believe This Edge! Sharpening a Kizer Militaw Nitro V
Published: 1 week ago
Super Mirror Edge on a KizerMilitaw Nitro V
In this video, I sharpen a Kizer Militaw Nitro V to an insanely sharp mirror edge using the TSProf Pioneer sharpening system and diamond lapping films. This knife was sent in by a viewer who wanted to see if we could push the edge even further. I start at 320 grit to shape the bevel, progress through 600 and 1200 grit, then refine the edge with 5, 3, and 0.5-micron diamond lapping films. By the end, the knife is hair-splitting sharp with a highly reflective mirror edge. Watch as I put it through cutting tests to prove just how sharp it is!
